As the Universe Turns - Chapter 180

Chapter 180 Past Events Surge and Sink

“Mm …”

Hua Weiyang nodded gently, but she was still worried. Even she didn’t know what the death aura in Xiao Chen was, and she always felt that it was very strange.

The two of them stayed in the inn, and at night, Moon gradually climbed up the treetop, sprinkling a clear light, reflecting the ripples of light in the pool.

The two of them lived in one room each. Xiao Chen lived in the east wing, while Hua Weiyang lived in the west wing. There was only a courtyard and a rockery pool in the middle.

Without intending to sleep, Hua Weiyang gently walked to the door and quietly opened it. Her movements were gentle, slender, and cautious, as if she was afraid that Xiao Chen would hear her movements.

When he arrived at the side of the pool, he saw a few daffodils blooming in the pool. Dark fragrance floated in the courtyard. Hua Weiyang slowly sat on the stone beside the pool. He looked at the reflection in the water, sighed softly, and wandered around with the moon shadow.

Occasionally, she felt sorry for herself, and sometimes she raised her head to look at Xiao Chen’s room from afar. There was a human figure reflected on the paper window. Xiao Chen was still awake. She knew that Xiao Chen was suppressing the backlash of the death aura in his body.

However, at this moment, there was nothing she could do. She could only look at her own appearance in the pool and sigh faintly.

After a while, a gust of wind suddenly blew. The cold wind was practicing and penetrating through one’s skin. The moon shadow in the water was also in chaos, and ripples seemed to spread out in circles in one’s heart.

The candlelight in the room darkened and shone, causing her heart to be in a state of chaos, and her concern to be in a state of chaos. She finally couldn’t help but get up and walked over, knocking lightly on the door. “Are you alright, idiot” she said.

Inside the room, Xiao Chen sat cross-legged, cold sweat dripping down his forehead. He slowly opened his eyes. Just now, he had suppressed the aura of death.

‘”Squeak!” The door opened, and Hua Weiyang stood at the door, her sleeves moving in the wind, and the faint moonlight shining on her, as if she had been covered with a thin silver veil, bright and flawless.

“Wei Yang …”

Xiao Chen slowly stood up from the couch, walked to the door, and said softly, “It’s already late. Why hasn’t he rested yet?”

“I came to see you.”

Hua Weiyang shook his head, still waiting to say something, but he suddenly stared at his head and said, “Idiot, don’t move.”

“What’s the matter?”

Xiao Chen frowned slightly. Seeing that the look in her eyes had suddenly become strange, he felt a little puzzled.

“Don’t move …”

Hua Weiyang was still stunned. He slowly stretched out his hand and pulled a strand of hair from his head. Under the moonlight, that strand of hair was silver white.

“Why … do you have white hair?”

Originally, there was nothing wrong with a white hair, but at this moment, an expression of disbelief appeared on Hua Weiyang’s face. He stretched out his hand and pushed his hair away. Inside, there was actually a strand of hair that had turned white.

“Idiot …”

Hua Weiyang seemed to be startled. He held the strand of white hair in his hand and looked at him blankly, “When did it start?”

Xiao Chen looked at the strand of white hair in her hand and shook his head, “I don’t know.”

At this moment, he remembered what Chu Tianyao had said back then: Controlling life and death, it was best not to use it again, whether it was the power of life or the power of death …

“It’s just a few strands of white hair. Perhaps it’s just that I’ve been too tired these past few days. You don’t need to worry.”

Seeing that Hua Weiyang was still dumbfounded, Xiao Chen comforted him.

The two entered the room and sat silently. The candle flames in the room shook slightly, and a trace of worry could be vaguely seen between Hua Weiyang’s eyebrows. After a long time, they heard her say, “Otherwise, should we let the elders of Celestial Pogoda take a look at us this time?”

“No need …”

Xiao Chen shook his head. Whether it was life or death, after experiencing life and death, he was no longer so obsessed with life and death. In the dark, he had his own plans.

Even Immortal Devil Gods and Buddhas, there is still one tribulation-the Five Declines of the Celestial Realm. If the heavens only give you three years of life, unless you can go against the heavens and change your fate, then let nature take its course.

Hua Weiyang’s eyebrows furrowed slightly. After a long time, he said, “Oh right, I came to find you this time. I accidentally heard something from Granny Meng when I was passing through the Berserk Sand Castle.”

“What is it?”

“Mm …”

Hua Weiyang thought about it carefully and looked at him. “I saw that Castle Master Nianxiang Qin was weird. Later, I learned from Granny Meng that Nianxiang Qin saved a seriously injured and dying person in the desert more than 300 years ago.”

“I also know about this matter. Senior Meng told me that he is from our Immortal Origin Five Regions.”

Xiao Chen looked at her with a calm tone. However, when he thought about it carefully in his heart, he felt that there was nothing strange about this matter. It had been more than three hundred years. Was that person alive or dead?

If that person was still alive, why hadn’t he gone back to look at Nianxiang Qin for more than three hundred years?

If that person was already dead, no … he always felt that that person was not dead. He was so badly injured in the desert back then, but he still managed to survive. How could he die so easily?

Seeing that he was lost in thought, Hua Weiyang did not disturb him. After a long time, he said, “Idiot … have you noticed that this matter is very strange?”

“Why is it strange?”

Xiao Chen looked at her, wanting to hear what she wanted to say.

Hua Weiyang said, “What do you think a person’s heart of hatred would be like if it was so heavy that even life and death could be ignored?” However, in these three hundred years, apart from the invasion of the Central Plains by Motian Sect’s demon sects, nothing else had happened. Wasn’t this strange? “The invasion of the Devil Sect must have nothing to do with that person’s hatred.”

After a pause, she continued, “The calmer the surface of the water, the deeper the vortex beneath it. If that person makes everyone think that he is dead and plots in the shadows for three hundred years, the result … may already be unstoppable.”

At this moment, Hua Weiyang looked at him and spoke very seriously.

At this moment, Xiao Chen was also lost in thought. In the past few years, the seemingly calm ancient land of Xianyuan had gradually surfaced into a dark tide. Perhaps the matter with the Profound Azure Sect last time was just a prelude, and a truly violent storm was about to arrive.

“Wei Yang, let’s go back.”

Xiao Chen raised his head. At this moment, his expression suddenly became serious. Hua Weiyang asked, “Why did you suddenly go back?”

“I don’t know either …”

Xiao Chen shook his head and slowly lowered his head to ponder. He slowly said, “I don’t know why, but I’m always worried that the person who laid out the plan … may be already starting to work on his plan.”

“Idiot …”

Hua Weiyang suddenly reached out and gently stroked his face. Taking a deep breath, he shook his head and said, “We can’t go back now.”

Actually, this time, she came to the Immortal Northern Ancient Realm to look for Xiao Chen was only one of them. She had another thing she wanted to clarify, especially after hearing from Granny Meng of Wild Sand Castle about that incident more than 300 years ago, that person.

As far as she knew, the High Priest’s true body had come to the world more than once more than three hundred years ago. All of this was not just a coincidence.
